Owners of vehicles may tax their vehicle for the first time, renew motor tax or change vehicle details at their local authority or online at www.motortax.ie.
Local authorities provide information and advice about motor tax such as how to tax a vehicle, motor tax rates, fees, change of ownership and exemptions.
You can apply to the local authority for a motor tax refund if your taxed vehicle is scrapped, destroyed or stolen or is no longer being used on a public road.
Local authorities may run events and activities including tours, recitals and re-enactments to celebrate and build awareness of Ireland's heritage and support its conservation, as part of National Heritage Week.
Local authorities prepare a record of protected structures of architectural, historical, archaeological, artistic, cultural, scientific, social or technical interest. You can have an input into the record through consultation.
Local authorities set up policy committees where elected councillors and representatives from social, economic, cultural, environmental, community and voluntary groups may advise on, develop and review council policy.
